I liked this book however, I have to admit it wasn't particularly exciting. It is a simply, easy to read, coming of age story. I wouldn't run out to buy this book but if you see it at a used bookstore for 5 bucks, pick it up. :)

I thought this was going to be 4-5 star read but honestly I hated Part 4. Plot-wise part 4 felt rushed and also I just sort of lost respect for Eilis in the last 20 pages - up to that point I found her story really compelling, albeit I felt that she never really made her own decisions but rather fell into a job , a relationship, etc. 3.5*
